Default cold air intake

So sorry I posted this in the wrong forum like an *** so I reposted it here where it belongs... Oh and please dont laugh too hard.

So I was thinking instead of just an air lid what about having tubing from the TB that spilts in two (as in a twin turbo set up) and ends where the um fog lights should be but instead have cone air filters? Basically just like a twink turbo but instead of the turbos is the filters... Wouldnt this provide more airflow to the intake that is if the fog lights are removed. I think it would look pretty damn sweet just dont know if my ideas are in the right place lol...

What yall think?

I thought of doing this same thing but having it at the grill instead of the fog lights. I'm anxious to hear others opinion!
